The Thank You Book is the perfect board book for little hands and hearts. There are so many ways to say "thank you" that go beyond the words.
The author includes people we see every day that we may not think to say thank you to: police officers, crossing guards, mail carriers, teachers and even the people who pick up our refuse (intentionally using a term more polite than garbage collector here).
Colorful illustrations by Juliana Perdomo show caring and happy children sharing toys, freshly baked cookies, a flower and their own artwork. It's nice to wave at workers who help keep our cities clean and roads safe. This sweet book shows little ones that there are many ways to say thank you besides the words alone.
The Thank You Book is perfect to instill gratitude and teach the lesson of giving back to others.
Highly recommended as a first reader.
